Facilities
Highbury Canco Arena
Added to the complex in 2000 as the Heinz Arena, Highbury Canco Arena is the home of the 2 time defending Western Conference Champion Leamington Flyers of the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League. The arena has an Olympic (or international) sized ice surface with bowl seating for up to 2,500 people. Highbury Canco Arena is also used by local minor hockey teams and the Leamington Skating Club.[3]
The former Heinz Arena name was changed after the main sponsor of the arena, Heinz, ended Canadian production of its products in Leamington. On August 15, 2015, The Heinz Arena became the Highbury Canco Arena [4]

Unico Arena was also added in the renovations done to the complex in 2000. The Unico Arena has an NHL (or North American) sized ice pad with seating for 200 people.
